Leeds to accept Crysencio Summerville offer after £33.7m reveal – sources.
Leeds United are resigned to losing Championship Player of the Season Crysencio Summerville this summer and will accept an appropriate offer, sources have told Football Insider.

He scored 21 goals and added 10 assists but Leeds ultimately fell short in the play-off final against Southampton at Wembley on Sunday (26 May).
The Yorkshire giants now face a growing need to sell players in the summer transfer window.
